Building Permits Research Request Form

Citizen Access Portal

The Citizen Access Portal website has a search mode for Building, Planning, Engineering, Sewer, Public Works, and Tahoe permitting and Land Capability Verifications. You can view active and historic permit details, but not view the actual application.

Note: In the "Start Date" field, you'll see more results if you change the date to January 1, 1900, unless you know the specific year the permit was filed.

Electronic Document Search

The Electronic Document Search website provides public access to Building, Planning, Environmental Health, and Clerk of the Board (of Supervisors) documents that have been scanned into the system. Additional permits are being added as time permits. You can sort and filter the provided search results by clicking on the down arrow next to the column heading.
